''Somi come and help me with my makeup". Y-zee called out emerging from her room dressed up in an off shoulder Ankara crop top and high waist black denim skirt that hugged her curves, had a slit up to her mid-thigh and stopped just above her knees.
   Somi who was sprawled out on the couch looked up from her phone.
    ''Ah-ah someone's looking snatched''. She praised. Y-zee struck a model pose, pursing her lips and using her both hands to fan her face.
    ''Wahala for who is not going out today oo''. Somi said going back to her phone.
       "Somi come and do my makeup naa". She whined. Somi gave her a pointed stare.
        "Is it not work your going to do? Which one is makeup again?"
         "You know that this is a rich people event and everybody there will glam up. I can't go there looking like a house girl even if I am just the caterer". She explained putting on her round gold earrings.
        "I get your point but I don't have strength to do any stressful makeup oo". Somi whined.
        "Ehn, don't worry I don't you want to do too much sef. Just do that trendy Purple Speedy stuff—  She pointed at her lips.
           "Lip combo". Somi corrected. Y-zee rolled her eyes. Concerns you and your Gen-Z customers. She thought jokingly.
           —apply some mascara tomy lashes and do my edges". She finished. Somi finally stood up muttering something under her breath. Y-zee rolled her eyes.
               ''Come and do my makeup joor''.

***********
Today she was going to cater some event that Mrs. Detola has booked her for sometime ago. According to what she knew, the event was Mrs. Detola's father's 65th birthday bash and  it was going to be big. She could tell from the menu Mrs. Detola had given her to prepare. She told the the driver to stop opposite her shop as usual then crossed to the other side. There was no car parked in front of her shop  indicating that that Dare guy wasn't there yet (Mrs. Detola said he'd be the one to pick her up).
  As much as she dreaded to see that Dare again especially after that attitude she gave him last Sunday she couldn't even complain. She just hoped that he would be civil today cause she was ready to put on her best behavior today and act as though nothing happened.
    By now she was already in her kitchen upstairs dishing the food she had prepared last night with Somi's help  from the pot into different buffets while waiting for Dare.

**********
She was just rounding up with everything when she heard a car honking below she rushed to the transparent glass of her kitchen to see a dark blue Sienna with tinted glasses. Coming out of the passengers seat was Dare.
Lemme not lie the boy is fine. He was looking dapper in a dark blue agbada, forget oo Yoruba boys are fine. There was another guy coming out of the passengers side, dressed in  blue isiagu. Is like blue was the colour code for this event this one that the major color of her Ankara top was green. She thought as she admired the..........
     Wait, wasn't that.......

********
   Dare alighted from the Sienna Detola had lent him yesterday for the purpose of collecting the food since his own car (I haven't decided what car Dare's driving yet. Please feel free to give me ideas in the comments section. Thank you). wouldn't be able to carry so much food. He smoothened invisible creases on his  own his well-ironed agbada.
     Victor hopped out of the passengers seat with a whoop. Energetic idiot.
      Victor suddenly gave a dramatic pause. "Isn't his Y-zee's restaurant?" He asked taking off his sunglasses.
       What was this one talking aboutDare followed his line of sight to the name of the shop. Y-Zee's Confectionery.
       Wasn't that the same place Victor got his food from the other day............ Wait Victor knows......
    "Victorrrrrr!". Dare saw a blur of light skin, green top, denim skirt and..... hips.........
      Dare gulped watching her hop on an equally excited Victor.
       Forget her smallish figure, this girl is thick small
        "This girl, you're now a big chef oo, you're the one catering the Adelekan's event". Victor hailed.
          "It's God oo''. Yaga replied with a giggle. Dare narrowed his eyes. We're these two dating? The chemis-
          Yaga's gaze finally fell on him and their eyes met. Her happy expression morphed into an 'Oh I almost forgot this one was here sef'. She slowly pulled out of Victor's embrace.
         "Good Afternoon Sir". She greeted curtly. Dare nodded in his signature indifference.
           "Y-zee meet Dare the business partner I was talking about the other day and Dare meet Y-zee my baby girl". Victor joked, introducing them but of course Uncle Dare didn't know he was joking. Yaga laughed.
Oh so they were dating. Dare thought. Why did he feel disappointed? How could he be interested in this rude girl?
He quickly shrugged it off.
           "Victor come and help me with the buffets". Yaga said, already walking towards the shop. Victor turned to him.
            "Dare come and help us".
           "No no no, don't stress Oga Dare just ask for the car keys to the boot". Yaga cut in before Dare could move a inch. Her tone was very sarcastic. Dare fumed. He could tell her underlying meaning. Abi he told Detola that he didn't want to be in the same space with this girl again.
         But before he could unleash his powers Yaga had already disappeared into the shop with a very confused Victor hot on her heels.
            Dare puffed his cheeks  and tapped his chest attempt to calm
himself. Dare calm down you're bigger than this.
